Ah, you mean that sweet place back in the day when doing expert level Guitar Hero and you have to sort of zone out and not pay explicit attention so that your conscience thought doesn't get in the way of your hand eye coordination doing its thing Apologies I couldn't help myself The difference in score between flow and non-flow on certain songs was just so extreme that it's the most generic thing that immediately comes to mind for me Probably one of the more enjoyable, too Outside of actual instrument playing and dancing, or most creative arts now that I'm thinking on it The Guitar Hero still makes me grin though, so I'm sticking with it 😂🦋

So disappointed Taoism came with the concept of the Flow state the first, thousands of years ago and it's not even mentioned in the video Do Eastern philosophers some justice!!!!

The title is misleading
Comment from : @CarlosAngelo1

5:37 "From a peak performance perspective, purpose is very very selfish" This is the problem with "peak performance" as a lens and carrot to sell "flow" It's not that "purpose" is very very selfish, it's that "peak performance" is very very selfish -- when it has self-serving motives like competition or money grubbing There are purposes that do not involve thatbrbrThe idea of using "purpose" to attempt to drive "flow" in order to create "peak performance"? Something is really off there The purpose needs to be able to stand on its own and the flow and peak performance may or may not follow If you put the cart before the horse that tainted motivation will ruin the purpose

As someone who has dealt with add, I have been in flow state through athletics, and I can tell you it is pure bliss and you feel unstoppable being that focused

Comment from : @sumanshudoesphotography

I remember training like an absolute animal in high school for soccer I never knew what it was called flow state But i remember it felt like as if I wasn’t in control anymore and I started moving naturally Everything I did was perfect It only lasted a few seconds but I was always amazed

Comment from : @Karthick9590

One thing I've noticed with athletes is that creating the right mental space ahead of time can really set you up to enter the zone The key is managing your environment and mindset before you even step onto the field or court The prep before the game, like controlling distractions or setting intentions, can make all the difference when it’s time to perform A strong mental routine has a way of leading you straight into flow, and this is something we've explored a lot in our app This video is a great deep dive into how flow impacts peak performance!

Would anyone know tips for getting into a flow state if you have ADHD? Is it similar to experiencing “hyper focus” or is it different?
